Subject: [PATCH] api.c: fix order of memory subsystem parameters generated by
 cgsnapshot
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Order of parameters usually doesn't matter, but that's not the case with
memory.limit_in_bytes and memory.memsw.limit_in_bytes. When the latter
is first in the list of parameters, the resulting configuration is not
loadable with cgconfigparser.

This happens because when a cgroup is created, both memory.limit_in_bytes
and memory.memsw.limit_in_bytes parameters are initialized to highest
value possible (RESOURCE_MAX). And because memory.memsw.limit_in_bytes
must be always higher or equal to memory.limit_in_bytes, it's impossible
to change its value first.

Make sure that after constructing parameter list of memory subsystem,
the mentioned parameters are in correct order.
